Just the rationalization I needed...

...to buy a new bag! This morning I went to the doc for my first post-op follow up (had a hip replacement three weeks ago) and they mentioned I should be using a light, cross body bag to distribute weight more evenly than with a shoulder bag. I already have a Sandstone flat messenger, but of course I need a darker bag too. Just spoke to Daphne in NY, and a women's Besace GGH in Café is on it's way! She says the leather's gorgeous. Will post pics once I have it.

i just got back from an MRI on my spine, wonder if my doc will tell me the same thing at my follow up. My DH would just love it if i were prescribed a flat messenger!

Winona, so you teach them how to get dressed with the grabber thingie and the plastic "sock aid?" (That sock aid is a lifesaver!!)

Maybe you could write her a script so that she could take a medical deduction. Hehehe!

OMG, that is so funny~ I went throught the same thing a few months ago when I broke my ankle. The first thing I thought of was, "I need a cross body b-bag for when I am on the crutches". I love how Balenciaga has the different styles. Your new bag sounds yummy!

We don't need doctor's orders to know that Bbags are good for our health, but it never hurts to have a sound medical opinion supporting that pseub how fast did you call Bal NY after coming home from that appointment?! Can't wait to see it! And more importantly, hope you have a speedy recovery.

hope your hip is feeling OK! i know some people who have had that done and it seems like a very tough/painful surgery, so i hope you the best

 

[lolaluvsu]

i have to agree. that is the perfect reason to get a bbag. did the doctor give your a prescription?
